Barbados nut

Jatropha curcas

Jatropha curcas,原产于中美洲但广泛分布于世界各地的热带地区,在传统医学中未被用于药用目的。科学研究表明,该植物具有有希望的结果,例如开发出88%叶片外植体再生方案,并通过补充Jatropha curcas提取物在不损害美利奴羊生长性能的情况下减少了17%的甲烷排放量。此外,一项研究确定了该植物中的十二个RIP基因,表明不同组织之间可能存在潜在的遗传多样性。尽管与蓖麻籽和朱梅树等其他植物相比,在对抗斑腿跳蚤方面具有有限的杀螨活性,但这些发现尚处于初步阶段。尚未记录Jatropha curcas引起的重大安全问题或药物相互作用。
